Fishing Expeditions

SALVELINUS has always worked on the basis of taking anglers to where nobody has been before. That is why SALVELINUS chose Patagonia because even today there are many unexplored waters.

Expeditions depart in search of waters, which have never seen an artificial fly.

"Imagine crossing the mountains and you hear a gaucho say you are the first “tourist” to do so. Well that adds a special plus to a fishing trip. "

These expeditions last from 6 to 12 days and members of the expedition spend the nights under canvas or in cabins. The expedition relies on off road vehicles, horses and /or boats for transport.

Travelling takes up a considerable part of the expedition´s time, far more than would be the case on a more conventional fishing trip and this should be taken into consideration when thinking of booking a fishing expedition.

There is of course a whole series of plans designed for rescue in case of emergency and satellite telephone coverage is 100%. Nevertheless the expedition is normally so far from the nearest outpost of civilization that if a serious accident occurs there just might not be enough time for a successful evacuation.

SALVELINUS has planned several adventure expeditions to remote areas. SALVELINUS has limited the option of taking part in an expedition to the one, which combines accommodation in lodges/cabins/tents. Risks are thus minimized in case of severe weather. There is always a base to operate from and to stay at if ill health or an accident happens. The guest can therefore opt for completing part of the program.
